Guide

About this salary certificate template

Banks, embassies and landlords ask for a salary certificate to confirm that someone is employed and what they earn. This format states the employee's ID, designation and joining date, breaks the salary down into basic and allowances, gives the purpose, and limits the company's liability.

Tips for salary certificates

Match the payslip

Banks compare the certificate with recent payslips and bank statements. Use payroll figures.

Address it correctly

Some banks and embassies want the letter addressed to them by name rather than "To whom it may concern".

Date it recently

Most institutions only accept certificates issued in the last 30 days.

Sign and stamp

An unsigned or unstamped certificate is usually rejected.
